Summary

The school consistently outperforms the Ypsilanti Community Schools district and the state of Michigan in academic proficiency, with 60.7% of 6th graders proficient in English Language Arts compared to 24.3% for the district and 38.6% for the state.

Washtenaw International Middle Academy's strong performance extends across different student subgroups, with the school ranking in the top quartile or top half of Michigan middle schools for female, male, African American, Hispanic, and White students.

While Washtenaw International Middle Academy outperforms the nearby Ypsilanti Community Middle School, its performance is more mixed when compared to top-performing middle schools in the Ann Arbor Public Schools district, such as Clague Middle School and Slauson Middle School. Additionally, the school's high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 15.7% to 62.4% in recent years, are a significant concern that requires further attention and targeted interventions.
